PLAY CLASSIC FLASH GAMES Web pages with SWF games and animations play right in the browser, powered by Ruffle, an open-source Flash Player emulator. Landscape games can turn the screen and fill it. Play with the on-screen virtual controller, a keyboard or a game controller, and adjust the speed of HTML5 and Flash games. Compatibility varies by game and website.

Choose a voice, adjust the speaking rate and set a sleep timer. Voice availability depends on the voices installed on your device.

CONTROL WEB VIDEO SPEED Adjust playback speed on supported HTML5 videos. Available speeds and behavior depend on the website, player and WebKit support. USE YOUR OWN AI PROVIDER Connect a compatible AI service using your API endpoint, model and API key. Summarize web pages, ask follow-up questions and review claims for potential red flags and suggested checks with your chosen model. AI tools require your own provider configuration and an internet connection. Relevant page content is sent to the provider you select. Provider terms and charges may apply. API keys are stored in the system Keychain. BROWSE WITH PRACTICAL TOOLS Use tabs, bookmarks, downloads, find in page and night mode.
